Re: NASCAR thread
Pretty awesome showing for the Ford guys so far. I sure wish Biff could hold that thing down low. He has a car as fast as Carl.
Too bad Harvick is not even close to Kyle.

Re: NASCAR thread
Actually he has been pretty calm over the years. He seems to be handling his mistake okay so far.

Re: NASCAR thread
I say:In your face, NASCAR power-morons!
They should have thrown a caution when the last restart resulted in a multi car crash, and the debris from those cars. Instead, the morons in control of things decide to give JR a win on a platter, only they didn't count on him running out of fuel on them. Shame on them. They made it so obvious that they didn't want the cars who dominated the day, and deserved a realistic chance for an honorable win to do so. The wanted the JR win. He didn't I'm glad, and they should be ashamed.

Re: NASCAR thread
I think some heads need to roll after that obviously rigged race. I could'nt believe what I was seeing. They were'nt even halfway around the track so they were'nt even close to a white flag.

Re: NASCAR thread
At first I thought the same thing about NASCAR pulling for Jr but when I go back and watch it, I don't think they did. The track was plenty clear and as was proved in F1, Indy, and NASCAR today ... there is no way to fix a race with so many variables. Jr ran good today and has been all year. I'm not a fan but it gets a bit old hearing all the conspiracy theories. If NASCAR was cheating for Jr he would have won a long time ago.
I wonder if Chad will get a fine for his fbomb?????

Re: NASCAR thread
I've seen tons of races where debri is well off the track and they call a caution, yet when cars are skidding around out of control that means nothing? Jr. was already well ahead of everyone else.

Re: NASCAR thread
The race was not rigged for Jr. to win. Think about it guys, if they wanted Jr. to win, the WOULD HAVE thrown the yellow cause that would have frozen the field and Jr. would have won regardless as long as he could coast across the line. Yes if it was earlier in the race or even 2 laps to go, they would have thrown the caution but look back on other races. When it's the last lap and there is a crash like this, the rarely ever throw the caution. They usually let them race to the checkers in this situation cause by time the cars get back to the wreck, the race is over and they are already well slowed down by the time they get to the wreck. NASCAR didn't do anything different on the last lap of this race that they have done in the past. They WILL throw the caution on the last lap if the cars are all pretty spread out on the track and there is wreck up front but when all the cars are bunched together like yesterday, they usually let them race to the end.

Re: NASCAR thread
Except that the white flag had not been thrown yet. If it had then the race would have been over. Has they thrown the yellow to put into motion another helping of green/white checkered then Jr. could have possibly hit pit road and gotten a splash of fuel to finish, possibly with a win and given NASCAR what it so badly wants. But their knee-jerk reaction to the moment bit them on the butt.

Re: NASCAR thread
^^This. While the wreck behind them was happening their's no doubt in my mind that someone was on a walkie talkie yelling "DON'T THROW A CAUTION!!!". It was just so beyond obvious that a caution should have been thrown. In hindsight, yeah he would'nt have won the race, but no one knew he was gonna run out of gas at that time. Otherwise, it was an easy scumbag win.

Re: NASCAR thread
Well, what do you know. They call a caution for a water bottle this week. Far more important than spinning race cars and no caution last week.

Re: NASCAR thread
Kurt had everyone covered today in CA. If that race was longer perhaps Juan could have hit a few more cars.
